Welcome back Chip and Pat (from traveling!) nice work on the burpees and push presses early in the morning guys. Weights recorded are what you ended on...some did heavier weights for some of the earlier rounds.

Laura Pappas said...

Megs said...

Jon - You've proven this isnt a diet, but a change in lifestyle! Here's the years, and years of happiness and health!

Tidmore said...

Congrats Jon! Keep it up!

Dorothy said...

Nice job Jon. Very inspirational.

Also,
Thanks for the cheerleading on the HSPU and butterfly pull-ups. You really helped me a lot.

Denise said...

Awesome job Jon! Your accomplishment is absolutely amazing. Keep up the great work!

Stephanie Vincent said...

You rock Jon! Awesome work!

Jon, you said it all: "When the excuses stop, the results start. There are no magic pills, only clean eating and hard work."

Cline said...

"There are no magic pills..."

Yet.

I have to be honest here...we coaches learn equally as much from our clients. I read Schell's quote the other day and something hit me. I realized that I can get up at 3:20AM to catch a flight I need to for work but I groan at getting up 20 minutes earlier each day to get a row in before work. Schell's comment that there is only hard work made me realize that accomplishing your goals should not be easy...if they were easy, you would not enjoy the process. Setting a goal should be hard but doable...I am not magically going to wake up 20 pounds less...I need to work at it and more than that, I need to work HARD at it. That requires sacrifice and sometimes doing the things that suck. Thank you Schell for re-instilling that belief in my mind. I had quite the date with the rower at 5:40AM.

Way to stick with the push presses, gang. Loved the grit and the drive to finish on these...people really pushed themselves with heavier weights...and then pretty much everyone took up the challenge for TABATA situps, because you're all awesomesauce.

donkey said...

That's right. Ms. Kate K! congratulations, lady! awesome work, especially after today's arm-tastic WOD.
